adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power

tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of

starting the power tool accidentally.

 Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and

do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or

these instructions to operate the power tool. Power

tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

 Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or bind-

ing of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other

condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If

damaged, have the power tool repaired before use.

Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power

tools.

 Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained

cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind

and are easier to control.

 Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in ac-

cordance with these instructions, taking into account

the working conditions and the work to be performed.

Use of the power tool for operations different from those

intended could result in a hazardous situation.

Battery tool use and care

 Recharge only with the charger specified by the manu-

facturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery

pack may create a risk of fire when used with another bat-

tery pack.

 Use power tools only with specifically designated bat-

tery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a

risk of injury and fire.

 When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from oth-

er metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails,

screws or other small metal objects, that can make a

connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the

battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.

 Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from

the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally oc-

curs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, addition-

ally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery

may cause irritation or burns.

Service

 Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair per-

son using only identical replacement parts. This will en-

sure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

Safety Warnings for Drills and Screw-

drivers

 Wear ear protectors when impact drilling. Exposure to

noise can cause hearing loss.

 Use auxiliary handle(s), if supplied with the tool. Loss

of control can cause personal injury.

 Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces when

performing an operation where the cutting accessory

or fastener may contact hidden wiring. Cutting accesso-

ry and fasteners contacting a “live” wire may make ex-

posed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give

the operator an electric shock.

 Use appropriate detectors to determine if utility lines

are hidden in the work area or call the local utility com-

pany for assistance. Contact with electric lines can lead

to fire and electric shock. Damaging a gas line can lead to

explosion. Penetrating a water line causes property dam-

age.

 Switch off the power tool immediately when the tool in-

sert jams. Be prepared for high reaction torque that

can cause kickback. The tool insert jams when:

— the power tool is subject to overload or

— it becomes wedged in the workpiece.

 Hold the machine with a firm grip. High reaction torque

can briefly occur while driving in and loosening screws.

 Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped with clamp-

ing devices or in a vice is held more secure than by hand.

 Always wait until the machine has come to a complete

stop before placing it down. The tool insert can jam and

lead to loss of control over the power tool.

 Do not open the battery. Danger of short-circuiting.

Protect the battery against heat, e. g., against

continuous intense sunlight, fire, water, and

moisture. Danger of explosion.

 In case of damage and improper use of the battery, va-

pours may be emitted. Ventilate the area and seek

medical help in case of complaints. The vapours can irri-

tate the respiratory system.

 Use the battery only in conjunction with your Bosch

power tool. This measure alone protects the battery

against dangerous overload.

 The battery can be damaged by pointed objects such as

nails or screwdrivers or by force applied externally. An

internal short circuit can occur and the battery can burn,

smoke, explode or overheat.

Additional Safety and Working

Instructions

 Dusts from materials such as lead-containing coatings,

some wood types, minerals and metal can be harmful to

one’s health and cause allergic reactions, lead to res-

piratory infections and/or cancer. Materials containing

asbestos may only be worked by specialists.

– Provide for good ventilation of the working place.

– It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-class respirator.

Observe the relevant regulations in your country for the mate-

rials to be worked.

 Prevent dust accumulation at the workplace. Dusts can

easily ignite.

 The battery is supplied partially charged. To ensure full

battery capacity, completely charge the battery in the

battery charger before using for the first time.

 Read the operating instructions of the battery charger.
